Let we have two charges q1 and q2 and q1...

Let we have two charges `q_1 and q_2 and q_1q_2 lt 0`. What is the nature of force between them?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`q_1q_2lt0` is possible only when q, and q, are opposite to each other. So the electrostatic force between them will be attractive.
